I'm sure there are similar polls already, but the search feature gives me errors and I couldn't spot any by looking quickly through the first 250 threads, so my apologies in advance. But, to the question...
What's your favourite MMOG genre? Some might not have any existing MMOGs yet, but I've included some sources/IPs for reference. Unfortunately polls are limited to 10 options. I hope I picked the most important genres.

I am gonna have to go with Pirates for this poll. PotBS is looking to be one of the funnest MMOs in development. Can't wait to give it a test play. |

I picked Sci-Fi, but I don't mind if it combines a bit of fantasy stuff (kind of like in RF, but still a Sci Fi game)
Current MMO: Eden Eternal, Divina (TW Ver.), World of Tanks. Past MMO: Way too many (P2P and F2P) |

If there are genres people miss, please post them. I saw Western was included in the official mmorpg.com poll (though that one had only 4 options). Historically correct games (WWII Online, or a realistic medieval game) might have been worth including too.

Just goes to show how much of a market there is for a great Sci-fi MMO then...

Well my favorite is fantasy stuck into the medieval era. But the market is definately oversaturated with these so any other genre would be a nice change of pace.

Doesn't relally matter to me as long as its a good game. I voted High Fantasy as that has had more of the better games IMO. Though I'm not sure how High Fantasy is different from Sword & Sorcery. |

I feel the same way as the poster above me. I really don't care the genre of the game as long as it is done well. So I couldn't choose any of the choices.
edit: make that 2 posters above me. |

Hmm, I'm not too sure what genre FF11 falls under.

Originally posted by LilfurbalI'd say it's close enough to place it in the High Fantasy genre. There's bound to be a lot of blurring and mixing of genres anyway. Deadlands MMOG anyone? :) |

I'd like to see a Star Ocean 2 setting for an MMO. not a SO2 MMO (the single player is good enough) but something set in its theme. Disc 2 theme for sure. Fantasy style weapons + spells in a post modern world that has alien technology scattered about. I'm with most everyone else though: "No more Elves and Goblins!". Even if a new game comes out fantasy style why can't they think of a new race? Has it all really been done? Make a race up (with good lore of course); isnt that what designers get paid to do? Innovate.

High fantasy. Probably the only genre of books I read and the only game I would truly enjoy playing. |

Well i almost did sci-fi as im loving EvE and thats sci-fi [funnily enough lol ]. So instead i chose the supernatural one as that is something id like to see one day [and will if White wolfe/CCP get there way]. "Kill one man, and you are a murderer. Kill millions of men, and you are a conqueror. Kill them all, and you are a god." |

I'd love to see a mixture of high fantasy and horror/supernatural. But because I haven't noticed anything like this yet, I'll go with sword and sorcerry. THE TOMATO IS NOT A FRUIT, DAMN IT!!! |
